Elephant herd feeds in evening light - 07:47 pm

16 Jun 2009

With a lack of lions in the area, we decided to take a drive to see what else was going on this afternoon. Not a whole lot it turned out. The recent rain seems to have dispersed the game somewhat again and it was quiet this afternoon.

Just before sunset we came across a herd of elephants feeding peacefully at the top of Doug’s island. They were moving their way along the edge of the the swamp through the miscanthus grass. The late afternoon light lit the scene beautifully and we sat for some time watching them move into the evening. In the floodplain beside them, a single bull moved on his own.
